currentoccupation. A survey of science and engineering graduates found that only about 40 percent ofbachelor's degree holders felt that their job required skills that were "closely related" to their Page 25.468.2college major [6]. Many feel that the skills that they have learned in their technical programs arenot being utilized on the job [7]. Traits that are in demand in industry (such as the non-technicalskills, or ―soft skills‖) often come into conflict with the actual training that engineers acquireduring their degree programs, while the math and design skills that are emphasized in schoolremain underutilized. However, when practicing engineers

The inductive teaching approach is one of the effective student-centered pedagogies thathelps reveal students’ misconceptions and enables instructors to facilitate the misconceptions’repair and promote acquisition of new relevant knowledge [19], [20]. Prior research providesstrong empirical support for the positive impact of the inductive teaching methodology on studentlearning outcomes in the core technical skills [21] - [25].
